I mentioned to you last week that Jeff Bennett and I would be in Kansas City for the Kauffman Foundation ESHIP Summit. We joined over 450 other Entrepreneurial EcoSystem Builders from around the nation to collaboratively work on best practices. Aubree Taylor from the City of Sacramento’s Economic Development Department was also there. Jeff posted a blog story on his experience at the Summit that I recommend reading. If you’d like to connect with us on the state of the Entrepreneurial Ecosystem in Sacramento, drop me a line.
